Drains and Vents Dimension Suppression

[jgarza0422]

Is there a way to suppress dimension from coming out on the isogen iso for vents and drains?:D

I assume you mean the dimensions showing how far it is sticking out from the header (not the olet position along the header). If so, then yes, there is a switch (in the option switch editor) that deals with suppressing branch fittings that are below a certain NPS and less than a specified number of FMU fittings (i.e. suppress dimens on branches that are less than 2" NPS and have less than 6 components).

I have tried changing the around switch 81 but can not seem to get it to suppress for vents and drains. Normally we will have an olet, nipple valve and plug. The dimensions still seem to come out. Do you have any samples?

jgarza, can you upload a pic of your isogen options file switch 81?

Here you go.

Well, I can see from that screen print that your number of components is too low (the lower right text box in your screen print). You have it set to 3 whereas you listed 4 components above. Like I said in my last reply, you will want to set it to 6 (this accounts for most\all vent\drain scenarios).
